Happy Memorial Day Fun

We have had such a great weekend. Tom doesn't get 3 day weekends often, so we took advantage of this nice weather and enjoyed our little family. Saturday, we headed to the gym so Tom and I could do hot yoga (he did really well) and then took Stella to the pool.

The little kiddy pool is perfect for her.

Jumping to daddy. But our fun didn't end at the pool. After a LONG nap (the pool can wear a girl out!) we headed to the ballpark where they were having family fun day in honor of Memorial day.

We took Stella over the bouncy toys and we weren't sure if she'd like it, but she wanted her shoes off asap and was up the ladder to the slide, BUT...

when she got to the top she wasn't quite sure what she got herself into. ha!

After a couple of minutes of the big kids running around her and trampoling her so they could go down the slide she figured she better take a seat and try this slide out.

Here she goes. I can't believe she is getting old enough to do this stuff on her own. Tear.

Stella was very proud of herself.

Then we walked around the park. I think she is sick of me taking her picture here, but I had to show you her HUGE balloon.

Cooling off in the mister with daddy is so fun!

Stella playing with her friend Lilly at the parks playground. they went up and down up and down up and down the stairs and slide...super cute.

We ended the night with an INCREDIBLE fireworks show. We even got to sit on the baseball field. It really was a great show and Stella liked it. There were a couple times we covered her ears because it was extra loud, but she kept imitating Tom by saying ooooh and ahhhh. Obviously, I played photographer all weekend since I didn't make it in a single shot, but I had fun!

We hope you've all had a nice holiday weekend. Thank you to those of you who serve, have served or plan to serve our country! And thanks to the families who support them while they do a job well done!
